Tex Strap

  • Tex Strap is a planner structure consisting of a core of high tenacity polyester yarn tendons encased in a polymer sheath. The strips are suitable for reinforcement applications in combination with the concrete wall-facing panels.
  • The high tenacity polyester is the load-bearing element, while the sheath protects the yarns from installation damage and degradation.
  • The composition and thickness of the sheath for the Tex Strap are specifically engineered to provide a high level of dimensional stability and protection from weathering and exceptional resistance to installation damage.
  • Polymer sheath is resistant to physical, chemical, and biological conditions found in reinforced soil structures. 
  • Tex Strap is tried and tested in the world offering 120-year of design life and high performance.

Although they are considered extensible, the durability and strength characteristics of the Tex Strap exhibit inextensible behavior for easy installation.

Advantages:

  1.  High Degree of frictional interaction with the fill resulting in high pullout resistance.
  2. High-strength Tex Strap exhibits less extensibility than typical geogrid.
  3. Tex Strap connection to precast-facing panels is simple, quick, and requires no tools.
  4. Resistant to chemicals, micro-organisms, UV radiation, and mechanical damages.
  5. High tensile strength and modulus, low creep having a design life of 120 years
  6. Customizable tensile strength as per the end user’s requirement.
  7. It is easy to transport and use due to its lightweight feature.
